Anything less makes the photos less impressive. "You are going to fall off a cliff trying to get a better shot someday"- My hopeful and loving wife

The pic I posted here looks like it's got some nice CA Mike

In Photoshop, I don't like going below quality 8 (or 7 at a pinch) when saving as JPEGs. JPEG Artifacts are just too obvious at lower qualities. I will go to 9 or 10 if the image doesn't have a lot of detail and the file size loks like it will end up less than 200kB for an 800px image (sometimes a bit over). Cheers from down under, John

Hopefully fotopic.net supports direct linking, so give that another try. Cheers from down under, John
